Chris,
The easiest, least expensive choice is to use XCSoar on an Android phone
or tablet. That said, I have lots of questions that are not covered well
in the manual and I am forced to either ignore certain features to try
to understand them while flying. A good video tutorial would be really
helpful.

You have another choice as well: run XCSoar in simulator mode at home
while you work out what settings suit you best and see exactly what it
does in a variety of situations.

Don't want to mess up your current configuration? Download the Windows
version and run it on your PC (it also runs just fine under Wine on a
Linux box) and then, if you decide you prefer the configuration you've
set up there, copy it over to the rig you fly with.
